He was also married to a miracle worker

And this was way worse because members of Harry’s family were legit Nazi sympathizers.

That kind of reasoning got us the whole toxic Netanyahu clan. Can we maybe not?

Just going to point out that this was 14 years ago - 14 years ago I didn’t even have Facebook. NOT to say that this is an even remotely ok costume.

The early aughts were a simpler time.  Prince Harry also thought it would be funny in 2005 and seems to have been forgiven.

You know who gets to make bad Nazi jokes?

It’s stupid to dress like a nazi or do blackface period. But especially in the internet age. Like seriously did you not think about it for even two seconds?! And who are their friends? Because my friends would be like whoa, that’s not cool, man.

Who the fuck is Paul Hollywood??

If that traffic is “insane”, how would you describe any given rush hour in DC/NY/Philly/Boston? (typed as I scrolled up the East coast on the Google traffic map)

And yet... we live in a world where Piers Anthony’s Firefly was actually published. I mean, how did that even happen?

I thought he was high AF on cocaine when he wrote it. Made sense to me (in that vein).

Sidenote-I recall reading an interview with King in the early 80's where he mentions his friend, the fellow horror novelist Peter Straub, noting that King writes terrible sex scenes. King said he never felt that they were necessary or organic to his work. I wonder if this scene was somehow unconsciously related to
